Rainier Cherry Mojito

How do you celebrate "National Mojito Day" and "National Rainier Cherry Day"?

We found the recipe: "Rainier Cherry Mojito" by Cookie and Kate @cookieandkate #NationalMojitoDay #NationalRainierCherryDay 


What is a Rainier Cherry? 
Rainier is a cultivar of cherry. It was developed in 1952 at Washington State University by Harold Fogle, and named after Mount Rainier. It is a cross between the 'Bing' and 'Van' cultivars. 'Rainiers' are considered a premium type of cherry. They are sweet with thin skin and thick creamy-yellow flesh.


What is Mojito? 
Mojito is considered a Cuban highball. Traditionally, a mojito is a cocktail that consists of five ingredients: white rum, sugar, lime juice, soda water, and mint. Its combination of sweetness, citrus, and herbaceous mint flavors is intended to complement the rum and has made the mojito a popular summer drink.
